About Me

I am ALIVE and LIVING fully.I, the Eleven, am from over the hill where the hunter waits under wood, buried under wood. I am she who drowns and plunges to her death only to breathe and carry her heart upon her forehead. I am the earthquake brother. I am the traveller of high roads, the island hopper, the mountain hugger. I walk forever through the eyes that watch from white faces. I catch rain and swim with the seals and turtles. I tread with ease on a red road amongst giants. I am the destroyer and the life bringer. I am the comforter and I am the salt. I am in every country around the world and nowhere at all. I am the scientist who believes in the Fey Folk. I am the rolling stone that grows moss. I am the singer who loses all her songs, the musician who plays every instrument at least once, the artist who paints stories that the storyteller draws in the sand, that the wind blows away to another land in another time.

People don’t really listen they react

You know, if people would actually listen to what Barrack Obama’s preacher SAID, they might be able to stop their whining and groaning and look at truth. I sometimes feel so ANGRY at the ignoran...
